I hired Peter Ialongo to reshingle my roof, replace 17 windows, a front and back door, and reside with vinyl. As a carrier for Postal Service, I have literally seen thousands of houses over the years with vinyl siding. Pete’s work meets and exceeds the best, and neatest jobs I’ve seen among these houses. The way he covered the window casings in metal was especially unique and beautiful; so much so, that my wife and I decided not to put shutters on the house as they didn’t seem necessary and would take attention away from the look of the windows.Pete and his two workers were polite and professional at all times. No profanity was ever spoken even when they talked amongst themselves. This may or may not be important to you, but I think it reflects good character which spills over into the workmanship. When you care about how you present yourself, you care about the impression your work leaves on a customer. And I can tell you that Peter REALLY cares. If for any reason he senses you’re not satisfied with something, he will speak up first. This happened a couple times when Pete thought I was unhappy with something because of what he overheard my wife and I talking about. His concerns were groundless as he merely misunderstood the conversation, but it underscores my point about how his primary objection is to make sure the work is done to YOUR satisfaction, not his. There were a few issues I did bring to his attention, 2 were minor. One issue was one I wondered about before the job even started and knew it was going to be a problem. My garage door openings are curved on top. I thought this was going to have to be squared off to cover in metal. I really wanted to keep the look, but thought it would be impossible. Pete, without knowing this, proceeded and tried to keep the curved look. The result wasn’t bad by probably most people’s standard, but I told him what I didn’t like and he brainstormed on a solution. To make a long story short, he came through for me and the doors look great. Not once did Peter ever display any arrogance or indignation to any questions or concerns. He only showed concern and a commitment to satisfy.The price in the contract stayed the same, despite encountering rot under the back door of my garage that affected the back steps leading out into the yard, the plywood and even the studs under the clapboard shingles. He repaired everything. No extra cost. I asked him to replace the steps with Trex, vinyl railing, and Azek, which I knew were very expensive, and I only paid for the materials. He also had to make modifications for the side rails of my front porch, resulting in extra labor and materials. No extra cost. I asked for a few small favors which I was totally prepared to pay for, but he just did them. No extra cost. Before he started his work, I replaced the floorboards of my front porch with Trex. I had 136’ of boards piled up in a mulch bed in my yard. I asked Pete If I could throw them in his dump truck, which he uses as a dumpster, a little at a time. He said it was no problem. I came home from work one day and the boards were all gone.A few days into the job, I sprung a new request on Pete. I asked for a 10 X 10’ deck off the back of our sunroom. I wanted it all done in Trex, Azek and vinyl railing. This was no problem for Peter. He gave me what I consider to be a damn good price. I recently hired another contractor to replace my parents 11 X 13’ deck, and the price was the same, but it was all constructed in pressure treated wood. Staining the deck next year will be an added cost, and one that will continue into the future.Our house looks FANTASTIC. Every time I turn the corner into our cul-de-sac, I love what I see. Peter Ialongo is a one of a kind contractor. He will be the only one I call in the future. I highly recommend him and you owe it to yourself to get a quote from him. One thing will be certain if you hire him. You will be totally happy. And Peter will be the one to make sure of it!

Peter and his crew did a great job on my front porch. He was fair in price considering anything involving material right now is expensive. He completed the project when he said he would and most important he listened and addressed any concerns I had from planning to completing the project as I envisioned. I had a few very unprofessional companies ( in my opinion) come out and meet with me before I found Peter and I am so glad I continued looking and found him. Thank you Peter. I am very happy to have a porch I can show off !

Peter and his team renovated my deck in East Greenwich that was originally built less than properly. They were able to add-in additional supports, and get the deck up to par in terms of construction quality. The deck came out better than I could have imagined, and feels much more stable to walk on with new supports. I would recommend Peter and his crew for any construction jobs.

We couldn't have been happier with the work Peter and his crew completed at our home this past year. From the bid process through completion of the project, which involved stripping and residing our home as well as building a shed, Peter and his team, were always very responsive, courteous, professional and detail oriented. Not only did Peter provide a very competitive price that did not change throughout the bidding and construction process, but the work he and his team did was of excellent quality. Just as important, Peter provided a timeline for the work and stuck to it throughout the project while showing up at the same time each day and working a consistent schedule from beginning to end. This was extremely helpful for us. Additionally, Peter was always available to answer questions and to explore different options to ensure we were happy with the work. We would hire Peter again to perform work on our home and would recommend him to anyone looking to hire a builder.

EXECUTED OUR VISION PERFECTLY--FAR EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS!!Peter and his crew just finished completely transforming our previously neglected two story colonial. They removed and replaced rotting cedar shingles with new vinyl clapboard siding, installed new trim all over the house, and even built us an absolutely gorgeous portico over our front door. From the beginning, Peter was super responsive and accommodating. He truly wants the job done right, and won’t cut any corners to get there. He is an honest guy and he and his crew were very professional and respectful of our property and our family throughout the entire 3-week job. Peter was also attentive to our opinions and desires for the final product, and he takes pride in seeing a happy homeowner and a job well done. Everyone in our neighborhood has complimented how incredible our house looks, and some even stopped to take photos! We really enjoyed working with him and his crew and would use him again in a heartbeat.

After purchasing a house in January we decided to put on a new roof, vinyl siding and new windows. We contacted several contractors and decided to go with P Ialongo Building Company. Peter quoted an extremely fair price. We needed the job done asap as we are renting the property for the summer. Peter and his crew showed up promptly and got the job done well ahead of time. They were neat, knowledgeable, precise and quick. The house looks amazing thanks to Peter and his team.I would have no hesitations to recommend Peter Ialongo to anyone needing work done on their home!

It is common practice to obtain 3 bids on a vinyl siding home improvement project, but after I met Peter Ialongo, I cancelled the other 2 estimates. Peter made such an impression on me. He is very professional and worked with me to stay within my budget. The job started when Peter said it would. Of course, once the project started, I decided to add a few things, but there were no delays. When I came from work daily, the only reason that I knew they were there was how beautiful my house looked. They cleaned up the yard daily and when the project was finished, you would never have known they were there. Peter and his employee Ken were very respectful of my property. I highly recommend Peter Ialongo and I will use him for future home improvement projects. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Every single day when I pull into my driveway, I can’t wipe the smile off my face!!

I used Ialongo Building for a large rehab at my home and the work was excellent! I had my ideas as to what updates I wanted to make and not only was Peter able to make my ideas a reality, his craftsmanship was beyond what I ever imagined!It’s very rare these days to find a true perfectionist in their craft. Peter brought my project to a new level and all while keeping my budget front and center so I never had to stress out about the cost. I highly recommend Peter Ialongo Building for any project!

After owning our house for less than a year, we got hit with winter storm/wind damage. After speaking with and getting quotes from a few local companies, my wife and I trusted Peter and his team for our project. He completed our vinyl siding, demolished and rebuilt our front stairs and updated our windows to "picture frame" style. From start to finish Peter and his team were professional, knowledgable and efficient. Our house looks brand new, everything came out perfect and he made sure we were 100% satisfied before he left.. we highly recommend Peter for any work and will continue to use him for future projects.

Peter and his crew put up vinyl siding on my house two weeks ago. They did a great job. It looks beautiful. They were here every day on time, cleaned up every day. They are very respectful and professional. Peter seeks for perfection in his work. I am so glad that i hired them. I will definitely hire them again in future. Hire them, you will not be disappointed!!

We hired Pete after a rough winter of water damage for repairs, renovations and a wall addition to a home. He and his workers were courteous and professional. We couldn't have been happier with his work. The job was completed in a timely manner without any delays. Finding someone you trust to do such work in your home isn't always easy, it was with Pete. I would highly recommend him and will continue to use him for any future needs that we have. Great job!!

Peter did a great job from start to finish on my roofing and gutter project. Very reasonably priced while using high quality materials and an extremely professional crew. I would recommend P. Ialongo Building Co, and will be using them for all my future home improvement projects.

Pete and his team were extremely friendly, professional and easy to work with. They showed up on time every day and cleaned up before they left. They completed the job in the time promised and their work is of the highest quality. Though the job required a bit of additional, unexpected work, the originally quoted price did not change. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs work done on their home.

Peter built an addition on our home and did a great job. He was reliable and courteous. The addition came out great and we would recommend his company for any building, siding, or roofing needs. Our siding and addition are a great addition to our home.

Pete did a top notch job removing and replacing trim on my house. Although it was a smaller job, Pete took the time to explain what he would be doing and when. The work was done timely and as explained! Completely satisfied!
